How would I show my work for this problem: 2/3x+4+-6?

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11How would I show my work for this problem: 2/3x+4+-6?
Important to use brackets :-


Question is unclear but will assume it should read as :-


(2/3) x + 4 = - 6


(2/3) x = - 10


x = - 30 / 2


x = - 15How would I show my work for this problem: 2/3x+4+-6?
Thank you for your vote. Report Abuse

-2-3x
Another thing you would want to address is the potential ambiguity of the first term:





Is it 2/(3x) or (2/3)x which would be better written (2x)/3 or


2x/3





The way you have it written suggests 3x is the denominator of the first term.
you would end up with this





2/3x - 2





that's as far as you can go





there is no other x value and 4 -6 = -2
